I work for Aramco, I'm subcontracted, my students don't suck, I've been here 4 months and been treated very well, no contract violations, and the pay is in the higher bracket.
I have a good administration and my pay is always on time. I can't honestly say I dislike anyone at work and we all get along well. I work with 3 other Americans who would say the same thing as me. I look forward to class and enjoy the work. Sorry to hear you guys had bad experiences. |

Dear h_train,
Criminy - another malcontent. You keep this up and you're going to give this forum a bad name. Liking one's job, students, administration and colleagues
is not allowed, and the sooner you realize that, the better we'll like you.
So, enough of this aberration, my good man.
Regards,
John |

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day, and tell the world that everything's OK, but I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back, 'til things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black. |

Dear h-train,
By the looks of your contractor, you teach children, right? |

Indeed. I'm saving up dimes for a rainy day and I've got about a dollar laid away. |

Ehhhhnnnnt! Wrong answer! Yer no Johnny Cash fan! An acceptable answer would have been:
♫ Well, it's a '49. '50, '51, '52, '53, '54, '55, '56, '57, '58, '59 au-to-mo-bile;
it's a '60, '61, '62, '63, '64, '65, '66, '57, '58...♫ |

Oh come on, this is Saudi in 2010. Those parts are definitely not available... and I stopped working in Detroit a long time ago. I'm assembling a Caprice that will be worth at least a hundred grand.  |

Dear NCTBA,
Are you referring to Folsom?
Now here's a question for you:
Since there were a Johnny Cash and a Johnny Paycheck, how come there's no Johnny Creditcard?
Regards,
John |
